Young people aged 12-17 living Tbilisi, in the predominantly ethnic
Azeri Kvemo Kartli province and in the predominantly ethnic Armenian
Samtskhe-Javakheti province were asked the following question, "To
which country do you link your and your family’s future in five
years?"

100 young people were polled in Tbilisi, fifty each in Marneuli and
Gardabani districts in Kvemo Kartli and fifty in the Akhaltsikhe and
Akhalkalaki districts of Samtskhe-Javakheti.

The poll was conducted by the Business and Consulting company BCG
Research at the request of the Fund ALPE in February of the present
year and was published in the newspaper 24 Saati.

Results of the poll asking the question, "To which country do you
link your and your family’s future to in five years?"
